FoxFi on the HTC Evo V for Virgin Mobile?

[android eats apples]

Is their anyway I can get FoxFI on the HTC Evo V? To make my phone into a mobile hotspot. I know it says "Does not work with any HTC decices", but I think I've seen a few people get it on other Evo's and the Thunderbolt

I know... I guess I'll see when I get the phone, but I read on this same forum that someone got it working with their Evo.

You should be able to sideload the app by downloading it from: http://foxfi.com/bin/

He is not talking about "firefox", he is talking about an app called "foxfi" that allows android phones to use the tethering function built into most android phones without the need to root or to pay your service provider.

Install PDANet. It brings Foxfi along with it.

FoxFi will not work on many HTC phone because the way they software is bulit...When I had my Htc Inspire 4G I had to root because the phone is set to contact the network to make sure your paying for it.
